    Aebdy know who Hombleton is? He sounds like a childrens TV character - Iggle Piggle, The Teletubbies and Hombleton.

     

    Whoever he is, he's a bit of a dark horse.

  2. I'd like to see how many goals you'd manage to score agains FC Hound Dogs ya dobber.

    They play with a lot of bite, a right ruff lot. Certainly couldn't keep our Seb on a leash.

    Was going to name the whole FC Hound Dogs squad but got stuck after Jack Russell and Al Sation. I really wanted to get Giant Schnauzer in there somewhere too.

  3. Right everyone, in case you don't follow me on Twitter, I've written an absolute mammoth Sons Review of 2015. I've taken the ten matches I think have been the most memorable/important (5 from Murray's reign, 5 from Aitken's) Written a wee report for each, stuck in some stats and some analysis and even linked a gif of a very crucial moment.

    Have a wee look now, save it for later, save it for tomorrow, but I've spent yonks on it. Reminisce about Chris Duggan, Darren Petrie, Archie Campbell and a few others here -clicky

    Read down to the end of the Murray era, bookmarked the rest for later. Well written and enjoyed it all so far. Just noticed a typo on the first Aitken match, you have it down as 3-2 to Morton. Cheers.

  4. I guess everywhere's got to have one redeeming feature, I'm pleased I'll be one of the few to benefit from it!

    On the shirts debate, why not make the online shop more of a presence. Perhaps do a sale, or special offer and stick it all over Twitter and Facebook. I know I'm a bit odd likes, but I collect obscure football and 'hipster' football shirts for Fives, recently I've been in a Nordsjaelland goalkeeper top and Carlisle United home. Just because I saw them on Twitter at a good price and I hate big clubs.

    You wouldn't get more obscure in southern England than a Sons' top. On top of that it's original, cool, retro and the badge has an elephant on it. I mean if I was living in Tunbridge Wells or Leamington Spa it'd be the first thing I'd buy!

    I play 5-a-side every couple of weeks and always wear a Sons strip. It attracts a fair bit of attention...

    Them - What team is that then?

    Me - Dumbarton

    Them - Is that a Scottish team?

    Me - Aye

    Them - What league are they in?

    Me - Championship

    Them - Have they got a Championship in Scotland?

    Me - Aye

    Them - So how long have you been a Dunfermline supporter?

  5. Due to the heat retention capabilities of the humble tomato, you could potentially heat a 3 bedroom semi-detached house for a week using only 2 cheese and tomato toasties. However, they are more commonly used for removing the skin from the roof of your mouth.

  6. Just seen the photos on the OS, he's got less hair now but that's the guy I remember. A long time Sons fan so I'm sure he'll be giving the club a good deal. Yeah, the new not-very-subtle stadium name might attract a bit of criticism but who cares? A local business is supporting the club and vice versa. Here's hoping it works out well for both parties.

  7. He might have. He was also in charge of catering at Celtic Park for a few years.

    He's a decent bloke, and many a time he'd be on his feet cheering a goal in the Stand at Boghead.

    And I used to get a free pie at half time, me being a Steward back then :thumsup2 .

    The more I think about it the more I think it was him. Although, as you'll understand, my memories of queuing up for a burger after Akrams are a little hazy to say the least. I do remember him as being a nice guy, and I take my hat off to him for getting to where he is today. I also run my own business, but not quite at the stage where I can get a football stadium named after my company. Maybe I'll see if I can be a mascot this year or something...

  8. Big one this evening.

    If we don't win this I wont be back and Muzz can f**k off. Surprised it's not all ticket tbh.

    I thought Google would have customised their logo to highlight the importance of this game. Instead they've done something silly with shamrocks or something. Disappointing.
